Greetings Again:
The Storm Grove Tennis Team played their first match of the season this past Friday. The Stingrays played their best but were overmatched, losing by an official score of 6-1. The lone victory came by 6th Grader Mary Bennett, who defeated Gifford's #2 Girls Singles player 6-4.
The team's next match is Monday April 13, as they face South Vero Imagine School at 3:30 p.m. at the Vero Beach Tennis Club in Timber Ridge.
To get there, heading south on US1, turn right on Oslo Road (there is a light at that intersection with a Publix on the left and a Walgreen's on the right. Cross Old Dixie and the railroad tracks and head west about a half mile. Turn right into Timber Ridge. There is a church at the entrance. Continue along that drive about 1/4 of a mile and the tennis club will be on your right with ample places to park. Make sure your child has lots to drink and a snack.
Our team has another match on Thursday, also at the Vero Beach Tennis Club. Same time. This match is against The Master's Academy.
On Friday, our team has its third and last match of the week, against Oslo Middle School at Hidden Palms Tennis Club. To get there from SR 60, head south on 43rd Avenue, past 4th St where there will be a traffic light, continue south until you get to 5th St. SW. Turn left, make your first right, then a quick right, and follow that road to the end. You will find yourself at Hidden Palms.
A couple notes about this past Friday's match against Gifford.
First of all, thank you for your great support! It was great to have so many parents at the match! Secondly, we did not match up well against Gifford. I was hoping that we'd be more evenly matched but that was not the case. This week, we should see some more even matchups.
Finally, I want to tell you how much I enjoy working with this team! All of the kids have great attitudes and that is huge!
Thank you for your continued support.
Coach Daugherty
